Man chokes to death in cake eating contest

"A mature student choked to death after an "impromptu" challenge by a friend to see who could eat the most fairy cakes, an inquest has heard.

Adam Deeley, 34, from Birmingham, and his friends were at the opening night of a photography exhibition in Swansea.

Two of his friends put up to four cakes from the buffet in their mouths.

Mr Deeley tried to eat five but began choking and collapsed on the floor. Swansea Coroner Phillip Rogers recorded a verdict of misadventure. "

    the verdict was recorded as: 'you can't have your cake and eat it.'

    I like how they refer to him as a "mature" student.
